Good topic guys!
I think many are beginning to wonder if different morphs of hogs(Pattern or color mutation) that are similar are actually allelic.
Unless I am mistaken, many similar morphs in ball pythons have proven to be allelic or match up on the same DNA strand???, (please help me with this Gregg).
Though not familiar with many morphs, I think the cinnamon & black pastel ball pythons are compatible though they may have come from different areas.
Same true of the Mojave, Russo het, phantom, butter, and lesser, which can all be crossed to make BLE leucistics.
I recently heard that the two lines of caramel BPs are compatible as well.
Many lines may however be not be compatible like the albino black rat lines that when crossed offered double hets.
We are working with a potentially compatible line now and should have results out in a few months.
